Apologies for breaking the proper threading, if indeed I have. |

I've got Thunderbird to connect to my ISP and fetch new messages, but I |
| 21 |
now have another, large problem. It won't import my 25,000 or so |
| 22 |
messages from kmail, nor even its filters. I do not wish to lose all |
| 23 |
that history, so can anyone suggest another e-mail client that can |
| 24 |
reliably import messages and filters from kmail? |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Alternatively, since kmail version 1 has disappeared from the current |
| 27 |
mirrors, does it live in an overlay somewhere so that I can get the old, |
| 28 |
solid behaviour back? I assume that if I do regress to the old version |
| 29 |
I'll lose everything that's come in since the "upgrade" (it's a POP3 |
| 30 |
server). |
